Christmas Craft Amnesty - next meeting on Saturday 29th December

Yes, our next scheduled meeting date is slap bang in the middle of the Christmas holidays, so we're going to treat it as an opportunity to provide a bit of respite, a bit of refuge, for all of our WI ladies. We'll be holding a 'Craft Amnesty', which means you can bring in any of your unfinished craft projects, and work away on them happily in good company, away from the chores and demands of home. Or maybe you're thinking "Unfinished projects? But I'm practically perfect in every way, I always finish my projects!" Or maybe you just don't have any crafts on the go - right now, or possibly ever?! Well, fear not because we will provide some prepared activities / ideas (and some materials and equipment), so if you don't even have the time to think about what to bring, you can just turn up and join in.

We will also, as usual, be bringing lots of edible goodies to share, so overall you can expect a very relaxed, friendly, chatty affair. We're not planning a 'formal' WI meet with an agenda this time (it will be business as usual again at our January meeting), but such a sociable afternoon will provide a good opportunity for all of us to talk about what we will be doing as a group in the new year. (We will also be keeping you posted on here in forthcoming weeks, as we develop our 2013 programme of workshops and activities.)

Please add a comment below to let us know if you'll be able to join us on December 29th.

Welcome
